Locking gas cap
I haven't been able to find a good aftermarket gas cap that seals good ...my piants not perfect by any means but i hate getting gas down the side of my truck becuase the da&m cap doesn't seal
i've tried stant and another cap i found on ebay .. both are locking caps and both are worthless .. any sugegestion .. im have tempted to put my old screw-on cap back on and take my chances with the gas thieves if anyone got a part number for a good cap .. im all ears peace :b69: |
Can't find a p/n (sorry), but I recently bought a new locking cap at NAPA to replace my old NAPA cap... the rubber had rotted after many years... made in Mexico, seals well & doesn't leak.
|
i'll give napa a try .. i've seen a black plastic locked cap too at a local parts store .. haven't the guts to put a peice a plastic on the tank .. looked chessy .. but knowing my luck it probaly seals the best
thanks for suggestion |
Happy hunting - forgot to mention, my NAPA cap is chrome, has some red on the face (top) of it...
|
sounds like the 2 stants i've had
|
I got a 'STANT' with key lock at local 'Strause' store, rubber seal was so good I had problem with pressure in the tank on hot summer days. Used an 1/8" drill bit on inside center hole to fix that problem. Would top it off and have to make sharp right to leave, gas station, it never leaked...
|
you have the part number by chance restart42.. maybe they gave me the wrong one at schucks
|
i have had 2 stants and both leaked no matter what the temp, i will be watching what your solution is
|
Ive had bad luck with the rubber gaskets leaking and cracking after a short time also and still can't find a good replacement. I remember reading something about the rubber
made in India that can be very poor quality. |
Chevy Duty's never leaked.
|

Whatever you do DONT buy the black plastic ones from autozone. The gasket on the one I had didn't even last a month and they wouldn't refund my money. :bs:
